(1) One of our new signings turns out to be a right mongrel of a player, who can inspire the whole team by his passion of just pulling on a Broncos shirt. The likes of this we have not seen since Danny Williams, a truly inspirational player who could turn a game in our favour by a couple of hits on opposition players. (Sometimes the hits weren't legal but what the heck).

(2) The Stoop to become a ground that teams dread coming to because of our home form.

(3) A new sponser to get involved with the club to relieve "Saint David" of his sole financial responsibility for the club, oh & free beer for all on one home game in the season !!!!

1. A team that's entertaining and competitive in attack and defence, top six minimum and no more wallopings.
2. Efforts on and off the pitch rewarded by attendances that are much bigger and noisier.
3. Leyla and Cassie back as Cowgirls, in front of the BestWest stand.

Number 1 would be enough for me, provided we beat two of the big 4. Beating HKR at home will be a bonus, it stands as the half-way point in league status for me, and they've tw*tt*d us enough recently.

1 We Start to win regularly at home, which will then be more attractive to new supporters

2 To find a Major National Worldwide Sponsor

3 Preparations continue to leave The Stoop


I could put a petty 4th wish, but I don't need to stoop!! so low as one so called supporter continually does, with what he posts its a serious doubt he is a supporter at times!

No if I did have a 4th wish it would be that at long last, Everyone who post here accepts we are here for one purpose to see Rugby League and more so Super League succeed in London! which needs us all Unired and not divided as some seem to like.

1) More wins than losses
2) Bigger and noisier crowds
3) Into the play-offs

And you know, with the squad we have, and the number of new people already posting about taking up the season ticket offer I'd be dissapointed if all three don't happen. This season should be the start of greater, bigger and better things for the club

Well said, Blazing, I'm with you on all three (particularly more home wins though)

I would also like to see us negotiate a longer deal at The Stoop, as I am convinced that this is the best place to watch RL in London at the present time.

18 wins
13 of them at home
5k average gates

18 wins?! St Helens only won 17 games this season

With you on The Stoop too

And to wish for that is wrong?

1 Competitive in every game playing attractive rugby.

2. More wins than loses particularly at home.

3. The relaunch results in improved crowds and an upward spiral.

Well most supporters, including yourself, have realistic hopes.

My wishes are realistic. My hopes however are maybe unrealistic and some of them are unprintable.

How about a cup run, with a possible place at Wembley?? Leeds showed this year it doesn't necessarily mean you go off the boil, but I think I'd rather a string of league performances with a week off every so often than anything in the cup for now.

1) an increase in londoners playing the game
2) an increase in londoners especially (and anyone else who wants to obviously) coming to watch games at the stoop
3) a reason on and off the field for the two above to happen

As one of my countrymen once mused.......“We are all in the =#FF0000same camp as gutter=#FF0000fax, but some of us are looking at the stars.”

I wish that each fan goes to ONE away game next year

Does MM count?

no

Its sort of away ain't it, and its likely to be up norf next year?

it's a neutral game.

It's been said by me in the past, but if each "fan" of ours went to just one away game a season we would get hundreds at each away game rather than just the same 50 over and over again. We don't and its a disgraceful reflection of just how bad our situation is.
Most of our fans choose to miss half our games because they would rather be doing other things than watch us play.

2600 fans going to just 1 away game a year would see an average of 200 at each away game.
Crazy, that if they went to 2 away games a year, we would average 400 at each game.
we get about 50 (at a HUGE push and its the same faces every time)

We have the worst supporters in SL and are extremely lucky to have a team

Steady there Darth, some of us have other things in our life (work, family commitments, other sporting involvements) as well as RL, shocking I know! Probably get drummed out of the forum for that I suppose! With some of the journeys made by London fans getting to home games can seem like getting to an away game! Never mind the cost involved.

I am involved in 'on call' work in my job and generally work it so as not to be 'on call' for home games meaning I end up being on call the weekends when we have away games.

Away games will be a bit of an easier sell if the team a) looks like it might win (or at least give a decent account) or b) if so many of the buggers weren't on a Friday night!

So what's the answer? A travel club? Block book train tickets as the cheapest fares become available? Cheap coaches run by the club? Target particular away games in the hope of increasing numbers?

Couldn't be bothered to do a 500 mile round trip for an 80 minute humiliation last season personally. Hoping to go to a couple of matches this year but in all honesty it'll be more about a weekend away somewhere with mates rather than watching 'London Broncos'.

Distance and cost make it a pain generally. I'll probably be going to Hull FC, as I've got friends up there I can stay with, and possibly KR too (same reason). And I'll may go to Wigan, but that might cause a conflict of where to sit!!

What's the usual for away matches? Does everyone just make their own way or are there any coaches/minibuses that get booked?

My point exactly





there were about four last year, leaves nine others



dunno but all it takes if for each "fan" to go to one game a year and our away support sky rockets

You go, or have done plenty, but yeah most away days for me are basically days out on the lash
